The municipality of Marco de Canaveses will have the ‘Liga’ On-Demand Transport service from the CIM do Tâmega e Sousa available in early 2027, enabling connections from localities without regular public transport to essential services.

The service will operate via prior booking by the user, made by phone call, by 3:00 PM the day before the intended journey. Transport will be provided between designated stops and at pre-set times, complementing the existing transport network and ensuring connections for areas with dispersed populations or lower transport service density.
The on-demand transport will be carried out by local taxi drivers, with each trip costing between €1.80 and €4.20, varying according to the number of zones covered.
The 'Liga' service was presented to the Parish Council Presidents of the municipality, who can now provide their input on the 'Liga' stops to be implemented in each parish, with the service expected to be available to the public in early 2027.
